A master’s thesis at the College of Law at the University of Karbala discussed laxity in the choice and its effect on the contract, a comparative study of Islamic jurisprudence, presented by the student Aseel Hadi.
The study aimed to explain the meaning of laxity as a measure that the contractor resorts to in order to slow down, think, and take a period of time before proceeding with the contract and issuing his final decision. So that it is a means of protection against fraud and deception.
The study concluded that the Iraqi legislator did not address the issue of laxity, despite it being of great importance in concluding contracts, especially in light of the recent developments that the world has witnessed.
The study recommended the need for the Iraqi legislator to include the term laxity in legal materials related to legal options, as well as legal actions that are issued by one will, as well as actions that are made by two wills, and explain the most important legal effects that laxity entails in both.
